Alphabet Press Card - Core'dinations & Faux Suede

I designed this card for some home parties this month and next month. I love the Alphabet Press embossing folder which is perfect for the Core'dinations cardstock. It was close to the top of my wish list for new catalog items. Emboss first, then sand a little or a lot.

The Faux Suede technique goes with the Core'dinations cardstock so nicely...the cardstock on both techniques have the same soft feel. Just use the bone folder to curl the little flag over and over in both directions and from both ends until you can peel the cardstock into two halves exposing the center fibers of the cardstock...this is the Faux Suede technique.
